DORSET â Two former clerks at a Dorset store have been sentenced to probation after pleading guilty to felony charges of embezzlement.
Lea Morse, of East Arlington, was sentenced last week to a year of probation for embezzling more than $100 worth of goods from HasGas General Store. This was part of her deferred sentence under a plea deal with the state, meaning she could still be penalized up to 10 years in prison and/or a $10,000 fine on the embezzlement charge if she violates the terms of her probation.
Morse, 48, admitted printing out and scratching off lottery tickets â without paying for them â while working at HasGas between April 2017 and August 2018. As a clerk, she was in charge of the storeâs lottery ticket sales.

BENNINGTON â A 79-year-old former law enforcement officer pleaded not guilty Wednesday to obstructing justice in his long-running child sexual assault case.
Leonard Forteâs new felony charges come less than two weeks after the Bennington Superior Court found him physically capable of being retried on sexual assault charges going back three decades. He is accused of assaulting a 12-year-old girl at his Landgrove vacation home in 1987.
A retired investigator with New Yorkâs Suffolk County District Attorneyâs Office, Forte was convicted on three charges of sexual assault in 1988. But the presiding judge granted him a new trial, saying the female prosecutor had prejudiced the jury by being too emotional.
